Sun, 23 Apr 2017 20:10:38 +0000http://saminaik.com/?p=16842#comment-2356Thank You for writing this piece. Would like to share some extra points

-There is confusion at the higher level. Saudi Vision 2030 outlines ‘Job Creation’ while Ministry of Labor with Jawazat is seeking ‘Talent Replacement’. Two very different things
-Saudis with the right talent and a promising future get plucked by Ministries, Multi-nationals or Banks once they start looking for jobs, the problem is occurring with those who have barely completed their bachelors and who seek higher positions from the start (attitude). Lack of commitment is seen from those who have completed their education. 0 productivity, inefficiency, report late for duty or being absent from work without reason are still being experienced by organizations
-Your article uses false reporting from Saudi Gazette article that ‘companies’ were shocked/surprised too at the number of CVs from Non Saudis. I attended the job fair, many companies didn’t even bother to send their reps to the fair despite booking a booth(big names). Those who did send their reps, some companies like Mars & NCB clearly said that they wanted only Saudi nationals. Others like Bin Zagr group, Nestle, Saudi Brothers Group were accepting CVs from Expats without a problem

There were some companies like Unilever who had specified that they had only Sales jobs for Expats

Like Pakistanis, there is a new breed of hyper-nationalist Saudis who are being brainwashed by a very biased/racist Arabic media which shows that all sponsors are angels and all Expats are thieves, crooks, sons of satan

The day when 2 million iqama holders leave this country, this country will then understand what were the Expats’ real contribution. The signs are already there, Retail sector in major commercial cities is down by 50% mainly because of 200,000 mostly white collard Expats leaving the Kingdom for good from August 2016-present. House for Rent signs are increasing every week

Skilled Expats (especially those born/raised here) leaving KSA will prove to be the biggest Brain Drain for the country and it will take years to fill that gap

Sun, 23 Apr 2017 17:14:26 +0000http://saminaik.com/?p=16842#comment-2355Agreed 100% with the point made. The strategy thus far has been or will ultimately prove to be counter-productive. Instead of stimulating the economy and increasing employment opportunities, measures such as monthly-fees-per-dependent and absolute saudization only slow down the economy and discourage residents from spending. Rather, the focus should be on creating new positions, rather than forcing expats out and replacing them with locals

Sun, 23 Apr 2017 16:12:08 +0000http://saminaik.com/?p=16842#comment-2354The approach by the government so far has been and will ultimately prove to be counter-productive. Instead of stimulating the economy, measures such as absolute Saudization and per-month-dependent fees will only slow down the economy. Measures should be taken to increase spending/increase employment opportunities rather than discouraging residents to spend because of the uncertainty.
